in arid and semi arid, seedling emergence and establishment are key stages for final plant density in chickpea production. drought stress, especially at the end of the growing season, is one of the factors which decrease a main part of chickpea grain yield in these areas. therefore the aims of this study were assess to the effects of hydro priming and hormonal priming by gibberellin and abscisi...

Light intensity intercepted by the soybean canopy during the reproductive period is an important environmental factor determining soybean yield components and grain yield. A 2-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of light enrichment and its interaction with planting density on yield formation of soybean cultivars. Light enrichment increased seed yield per plant and yie...

introduction grain legumes are considered as the second source of human nutrition after cereals and play an important role in community food supply, sustainable agriculture and economic profitability. among grain legumes, common bean has the most consumption in the world compared with others. however there are always some constraints in common bean production and drought is most important facto...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide that is a subject of many plant breeding programs in many countries. In addition, climates are changing all over the world and drought becomes one of the most serious problems versus yield of crops. In order to screen drought tolerant genotype in Chickpea, twenty genotypes were tested under rainfed and irrigated...

in order to study the effect of planting date, row spacing and seed rate on grain yield and protein yield of faba bean (vicia faba l.), a split factorial experiment based on the complete randomized block design with three replications was conducted at research station of rice research institute of iran (rasht) during 2008-2010 for two years. experimental treatments were planting date in three l...

to study the effect of water deficit and plant density on yield and yield components of cumin (cuminum cyminum), an experiment was conducted during the 2002 - 2003 growing season at research farm of zabol university. in this study, the effects of plant density (25, 50, 100, 150, and 200 plants per m²) and water stress (before flowering, flowering, seed filling and seed hardening vs adequate irr...

in order to study the genetic diversity as well as the relationships between seed yield and some morphological traits in common white bean, 500 accessions were evaluated in the experimental field of national plant gene bank of iran in 2004 in an augment design of three control varieties. traits were evaluated according to the instruction of ipgri. results of descriptive statistics indicated tha...
